Thread Description
This thread was originally created to encourage traders here at GTZ to do more trading, especially retro related stuff. It has turned into a lot more and I am so grateful to everyone who contributed to this thread and have kept it going for nearly 6 months now. I hope this thread will continue to thrive and everyone who reads/participates in this thread will gain some value or knowledge out of it.

We will still have Trade lists up here, though it's been a while since anyone updated. I encourage everyone to look over their lists and post updates.
There is also a section for gorgeous pictures of game rooms that active participants of this thread have shared. Feel free to share some pics of your collection or game room.
I will be adding another section for information regarding video quality of retro gaming systems on modern displays and how to improve them.
There is rather some extensive discussion regarding how to improve the display quality of retro gaming systems and if you are new to this like I am, you will find it very informative.

Old Topic Description

GTZ has become a marketplace where the most commonly traded commodity is

. I want to start an effort to get some trades going and to discuss some good games perhaps you never heard of or interested in but want to discover/know more of. For example, I just got intto shmups after years of ignoring the genre and I love to discover new(to me) and rediscover old ones(Sonic Wings comes to mind).

No pressure here. Feel free to discuss anything retro. Perhaps throw out some WTTF targets and what you have to offer. I am sick of browsing people's year old Available lists.

Some examples:

- WTTF/WTB/LF
- What you think is awesome game/series/whatever
- Potential games you have up for trade
- Pics of what you have/what you would love to get/what you think is the bestest awesomest game ever
- Show off your latest finds/adds to your collection

So ambiguous not even Namco knows which one he is.

Wonder if it's an FMV game though, or just some kind of anime.

I was going to check on the price of that LD because I was thinking about buying it for the lulz but nooooooooo chance I'm buying the listing up right now.

Never played Ordyne. I'll keep it in mind for the next Ebay $15 extravaganza since there are a billion BINs from Japan.

Pretty quickly put that crapty scaler into a box and pulled out my VP30 for the same task instead.

It'd be nice if they did one that didn't require the app. I have plans for the next one.

Add stuff to cart, take out phone, check out on phone. How hard is it?

There is like a step where I have to download the app and fudge that. Maybe I'll do it next time anyway, idk.

$90? Plus shipping? Yeah, no thanks. The VHS version did sell for $61 shipped, too. This is something I'd never heard of, so I am interested, but...

Gypsy

Another gaming pro-tip: the PC Engine in Star Parodier is much better than Bomberman or the Soldier ship. Shooting CDs just wrecks everything.

I've got 6 listings up on eBay

https://www.ebay.com/sch/jinkun02/m.html?_trksid=p...

RTT exclusive: Snag everything seen here for $97 + $15 flat shipping. That's 20 Bluray movies and 12 games. If each of these games were worth $10, this would already be worth it, but there isn't a game here worth less than $10. A good handful of the Blurays haven't even been opened yet, lol.

Yeah, since moving ten minutes away from work (walking, two mins drive) I've got around six hours every weekday and however long I want on the weekends to essentially play with myself.

I may be interested in these down the road like spring or summer in case you get rid of them

DiamondDave

* 19-Dec-2017(#115)

Pretty sure Yakuza 0 and Berseria should be available by then, possibly FBW. About to finish Stick of Truth, then moving onto Berseria and Yakuza 0, then FBW and Arkham City will probably be the next targets.

Edit: Crap, not Berseria, unless I put down Zesteria, that's the one I fired up last night. I'm looking forward to that one the least so I'm wanting to do it first, at least get to the point where I'm like "I'm not finishing this, moving on". So far it's not terrible... other than the dumb Native theming and awful intro. Also the protagonist runs like he's got a full load in his underpants

Hey, there's a fun game for any Tales fans. What's your favorite intro?

I may have to go with one of my least favorite games overall: Vesperia had a kick-ass intro that I loved, even in English. Maybe especially in English? But that's just based on the song; with music and animation taken into consideration, I think Tales of the Abyss smashes everything.

You should be playing video games instead.

Berseria is set 1000 years before zestiria, I did it backwards, I played berseria and now I need to play zest, apparently there references including one big one so I'll see what that is eventually. apparently the ending of berseria means more if you played zestiria so i'll be looking forwards to seeing why.

and ya Tokyo xanadu is great so far its persona with action rpg dungeon crawling combat. only one at a time in battle but you switch pretty freely between characters based on elemental affinity.
